Saucy and ironic, Sam Durant's works address utopias and their failures, crossing events from the recent American past to create relationships between the art historical, pop cultural, and political phenomena that have come to define popular culture over the past 35 years. Conceptually conceived, multimedia in practice, Durant's installations refer to such guiding figures as Robert Smithson, Mick Jagger, Neil Young, and Black Panther cofounder Huey Newton.
